How do contractors return excess material purchased from DLA?  Regarding the process for return of DLA material in original packaging that is not obsolete, will DLA limit the quantities we can return through a review process similar to using the DLA Material Returns Program (FT Series Documents) or will DLA approve the entire quantity we request to be returned each time as long as it is in the original packaging?

**Contractors may return excess material to DLA through the DLA Material Return Process.  The returns will be evaluated using a review process similar to using the DLA Material Returns Program (FT Series Documents).****A process overview will be posted with the Q&A on the AF GEN III web site.**

Pg 82--States “15 days to 30 days for each site meeting”.  The time line for corrective actions following each CIP meeting does not allow sufficient time for all 3 sites to address the issues identified within the stated 60 days total.  Recommend this be changed to read individual site actions will be addressed within 30 days from each sites’ CIP meeting.

**Section 2.3 of the PWS (“IPV Transition”) has been updated to allow 30 days after the site meeting for all outstanding issues to be resolved. Additionally, the section defines the order of the site meetings as WR-ALC, OC-ALC, and OO-ALC respectively.**

There are multiple discrepancies in the Government furnished columns of the Cross Reference Matrix (CRM). Will the Government address specific discrepancies or reassess and potentially reissue the CRM in its entirety per an RFP amendment? (note: this is a paraphrased version of the original question as it provided multiple examples of the errors) 

**Upon further review, many updates to the “Instructions to Offerors” and “Evaluation of Offers” were not captured in the CRM. The CRM has been corrected to reflect the correct references in the Government furnished columns and will be incorporated via amendment 0004.**
